Expecting a Package?

Here's a fun Kraftin' Kimmie card for this week's CPS sketch #211. This is Caroline! Isn't she a darlin'?! Such a fun, punny sentiment, too, especially for us stampers who always seem to be stalkin' the mail man or Mr. Brown!

I paper-pieced her apparel, trimming it so that it looks long-sleeved and layered. I shaded the robe, and then colored and shaded the gown "underneath" with Copic markers. Such a fun image to color, really great for practicing skin tones and hair. She makes me laugh as I remember looking just like this right before I had Matthew, who weighed 10 lb 4 oz at birth!
